The neurosurgery team was great. Both my doctor and his NP answered all of my questions and provided good postop guidance. Definitely recommend them!
I was pleased with the concern and how was listened to. Waiting for follow up testing appointments .
I had to send chat after visit to ask about continuing meds and restarting others. Also wish Dr had written down a possible diagnosis he gave me as reasons for a referral. I can't remember it. Only the description of it. But over all I feel well cared for and trust my surgeon and my care team.
The staff and doctor gave ease with my upcoming surgery and eased my mind on some concerns that I had.
Appointments keep getting harder to get and further out. Dr. Vandantem seems to be very thorough and nice.
My care is complex. My surgeon and RN are excellent. I feel at peace knowing how we are proceeding. Extremely attentive, honest and trustworthy.
Provider was awesome, explained everything very clearly and answered all the questions that I asked.
I have been impressed by the courteous staff, and patient management. I chose Froedtert because of its reputation as an excellent research and teaching hospital. I was seeking a second opinion about a spine diagnosis and selected Dr. Vedantam after reading about him on the Froedtert website and was impressed with his experience and research engagement; I could not be happier with my choice. Dr. Vendamtan was kind, generous, attentive to my concerns regarding surgical options. His ability to explain and detail MRI findings was critical to my understanding of my spinal alignment. Dr. Vendamtan's regard for patients is exceptional.
Dr V is awesome, listens, empathy and sharp as a tack. Very Happy with him!
Great team
